  Thank you so much for this – I’ve been baffled for years on yarn counts and it now makes sense!!!

  I could never find an explanation of the difference between 2/10 and 10/2 yarns and here it is! No difference! Just depends on where you live, they are the same thing. Sweet. Confusing…. but sweet. 😊

  I’m sorry, where is the pdf that you are referring to for this? I can’t seem to find it. Thanks.

    Hi Sheila, there is no PDF for this lesson. Which PDF does Jane refer to?

  I think there is a mistake in the woolen vs worsted numbers you presented. Worsted always has less yards per pound than woolen does. It has to, it is more dense.

  Is there a calculation of grams to metres? thanks!

    Not that I know of because you have to know the size of the yarn before you can establish you many metres there are in 100 grams. I usually try to find out how many yards or metres there are in a lb./454 g. I’m looking at and convert to the system I use for planning my weaving.
